What to expect from our classes:
Our Learning Levels
-
Hatchling is Lingo Flamingo’s foundational course, and is for all the newbies amongst you who are ready to dive into your chosen language for the first time! Numbers, colours, animals, clothes, the weather, food, and the key verbs you’ll need to continue your adventure with us.
-
Chick classes are for beginners, ranging from complete newbies who have completed our Hatchling class and those who know some basic everyday phrases to students who can articulate simple sentences. Classes for Chicks suit students ranging from pre-A1 to those approaching the A2 level.
-
Post-chick classes are those for post-beginners, sitting roughly at the A2+ level and above. These classes are suited for those with a decent foundational understanding of a language, even if those foundations were laid many years or decades ago. It’s a matter of time and practice till you get your language skills back on track!
-
Fledgling classes are for those at an intermediate level (B1+) and suit those of you who are a little further ahead with fluency and who are more comfortable with basic grammar structures.
